Error with output

The Mechanic (2)
Hello everyone, new to the forum. I was trying to complete an assignment but I just can't figure out how to get the output to display in a certain form. Here is the question(calculating distance between entered coordinates): "The display produced by your program should be:
The distance between the points (xxx.xx, xxx.xx) and (xxx.xx,
xxx.xx)is xxx.xxxx"

    return 0;

thanks!

std::cout << std::fixed << std::setprecision(2);
std::cout << "The distance between the points: (" << x1 << ", " << y1 <<
             ") and ( << x2 << '', " << y2 << ") is ";
std::cout << std::setprecision(4);
std::cout << distance;

Thank you. I must be doing something wrong as I still get error messages. Do I have to alter the code in anyway?
